THE MANITOBA STsTEN.

The Manitoba system, which is now
being extended into Montana, holds
the first rank among the great rail
road groups Of the United States. II
has promoted the development Of the
Red River valley and Dakota by pro
viding settlers with means Of reach
ing the wheat markets of Minneapolis
and Duluth. OF the $4,000, 900 bushels,
Of wheat sent to these cities, a large
part is carried by the Manitoba rail
road. 1t operates 1,756 miles of track,
irrespective of the 81 which are now
being built from Mlnot to Great Falls.
1t holds land grants from Minnesota
but none from the general govern
ment. It controls the union terminal
facilities in st. Paul and Minneapolis,
and has a short line which does i'm
mense business between the two cities.
The financial credit of the company
is high, because its net earnings are
large, while its fixed charges are
light. Its affairs are conducted with
success by President Hill and his eff
fcient staff, which includes some Of
the ablest railroad men in the country.
1t is gratifying that this great pro
gressive system and it's connecting
lines will traverse Montana from the
boundary at Fort Buford to the rich
mining camp at Butte. In its track
will follow population and prosperity.

ments.
The convention likewise advised
wool-producers to unite in demanding
from the railroads proper freight
classification Of woods in transit, and
urged producers to protest against
any discrimination in railroad rates
against Texas and Colorado in order
to favor California.
The proceedings bear the impress
of e~arnestness and good judgement.
The resolutions are intended to unite
wool-growers in defense of their COM
mon interests, regardless of party or
locality. The advice which they give
is timely and practical, The magni-
tude of the wool industry warrants
such vigilance. In union is strength.

WALTER M O'DwYER, EDITOR.
INTROD

TT f
Two yeah Tb,,- alen I'VE founded
the Great Falls TRIBUNE, this city had
few people and was little known.
Able men with capital and enterprise
had discerned its adaptability for
commerce and industry, but the con
struction of the Manitoba extension,
the Montana Central and the branch
lines to Rimini and Marysyille, were
still remote possibilities. The coun-
try at large vas still suffering from
commercial depression, and the lead
ing Montana interests were more or
less affected thereby.
Now all is changed. Valiant men,
such as Mr.. Paris Gibson and his as
sociates, have attracted here merchants
and manufacturers, who have built
mills, established banks, and, in a
word, founded a city, which is peerless
in its location and embodies all the
improvements that experience sug-
gests in the building and adornment
of large towns. The graded track Of
the Montana Central is already at our
doors, and the Manitoba is advancing
toward us at the rate of nearly five
miles a day. The city has become
the mart for a vast, prosperous region
and is IN q fair way to attain soon the
growth Of Kansas City-that other
phenomenal city on the Missouri.
1t is under such bright auspices
that we launch the SEMI WEEKLY
TRIBUNE. We shall make no prom
ises, but let it speak for itself. We
trust, at least, that it will beof service
to this city and territory and merit
the support of those to whom the sue
cess OF the WEEKLY TRIBUNE is due.

run out Of these, and for this eastern
fishermen want the American people
to refuse TO purchase from or sell to
